Tools in Motion: Works from the Hechinger Collection

Summary | Specifications | Tour Schedule | Images | Installations | Press | Checklist (PDF)


Tools in Motion is an exhibition of witty, light-hearted works by emerging and prominent contemporary artists chosen from The Hechinger Collection. The 47 motion-related and visually intriguing works selected for this exhibition were chosen with children, families and school groups in mind to foster many educational programing opportunities. In addition, the inclusion of works by artists such as Arman, Claes Oldenburg, and Jim Dine, and the use of materials such as wood, paper, metal and stone, attracts contemporary art lovers of all ages.

This exhibition not only appeals to a broad audience, but is also designed for a wide range of venues and can be a clever, appropriate exhibition for any museum under renovation.
